ii. Heroes

Learn about hero training, abilities, and items in Warcraft III: Reforged. Your first hero is free, subsequent heroes have specific costs.

Hero Attributes:

• Each hero has a primary attribute: Strength, Agility, or Intelligence.
• Increasing a primary attribute by 1 point increases hero damage by 1.
• Strength: Increases hit points by 25 per point and improves hit point regeneration.
• Agility: Increases attack speed and armor by 1 for every 3 points.
• Intelligence: Increases mana by 15 and improves mana regeneration.

Hero Abilities and Levels:

• Heroes can level up to level 10.
• Each hero has 4 spells: the first 3 have 3 ranks each, and the ultimate spell has 1 rank.
• When you first train or control a hero, you can learn one of the first 3 abilities.
• Each time you level up, you receive 1 attribute point to spend on upgrading an existing ability or learning a new one.
• The ultimate ability becomes available at level 6 and is considerably powerful.
• The second rank of a spell requires level 3, and the third rank requires level 5.
• A suggested leveling strategy is to focus on a primary ability, then a secondary, and level the last one after acquiring the ultimate. For example: level primary at 1, secondary at 2, primary at 3, secondary at 4, and max primary at 5.

Hero Items:

• Each hero can carry up to 6 items.
• There are two types of items: consumable (used via clicking or hotkeys) and passive (provide ongoing benefits).
• Consumable items include scrolls for teleporting heroes and nearby units to your main structure, healing potions, and mana potions.
• Passive items can increase attributes, movement speed, or armor. They may also grant special effects like splash damage, ranged attacks against air units, slowing effects, or damage over time.
